    Interesting that you point out it's legal to burn the American flag, clearly you support that.

    If you believe in our constitution YOU should support a persons RIGHT to. Whether you agree with it or not.

    I care more than I can explain to a stranger on a forum. Burning the American flag may be legal, however NUMEROUS American solderers died to give us that right. So yea, burning the American flag pi***s me off!! It should p**s off any supporter of the Constitution. Educate yourself a bit, the Constitution was written to protect us against government tyranny. It's being used by today's government to divide us and they are doing a hell of a good job doing that.

    SIAP. Dude, standing during the anthem is respecting the nation and kneeling during the anthem is disrespecting the nation.:roll: Figure it out, just once.

    He is not the problem, with this statement you are the problem. What you just don't understand is that hate is what our current politicians want us to feel for each other. By hating your fellow Americans you are giving them the ammo they need to divide and conquer us. It is happening, & I know that you know this, but are you willing to swallow your pride and say "YA MAN, IT REALLY IS THE POLITICIANS THAT ARE THE PROBLEM?"

    I ADMIT IT: I F*****G HATE ALL POLITICIANS & I'M NOT AFRAID TO SAY IT!!

    POLITICIANS ARE WRECKING THE GREATEST NATION EVER!!

    AND "WE THE PEOPLE ARE LETTING IT HAPPEN BY NOT STANDING UP TO THEM"

    Yep, you're right. I probably shouldn't have posted that but I did.

    I didn't hate racists, sexists, homophobic people or even Trump when I joined this forum. I hate many of them now. They are helping him bring our country to its knees and they don't give a damn.

    (fyi...I'm actually not a hateful person at all. There is only one person in all my years on Earth that I really dislike outside the internet and that person took everything I ever owned, kidnapped my children, destroyed my credit, called the cops on me every 3-4 weeks for a decade (I've never been arrested), had me chased down on a highway with a lie to the State police (that really don't listen until they surround you, drag you out of your vehicle and throw you to the ground with guns drawn) and went to every single doctor and specialist I had and all of them dropped me over the course of about seven years. I don't even hate my ex because of my children. If either of them to ask me help their other parent, I would do it. I would cringe the whole time but I'd do anything for my children, even grin and bear that.)

    By "him" do you mean President Trump is bringing this country to it's knees?

    And, the freedom to do BOTH, is respecting the constitution of the USA.

    Yes, I am referring to former President Trump.

    I'm concerned mostly about his conflict of interests with China, but there are other questionable alliances as well.

    P.S. You didn't quote me so I didn't get an alert. I just clicked the wrong link and saw your question.

    It's not about me and Eminem, it's about the constitution.

    Eminem is a music icon. He defined the 90s and changed music culture while Guliani will always be known as Trump's lap dog.

    I don't see how you're able to separate The Constitution and the US.

    Ok, Now thats cool. Big brother takes his sis to the base and puts her in an AF T-38 flight sim? Yeah baby.

    And love the story about Michael Phelps. That guy was amazing and I could actually picture you doing that.

    So I have a flight sim story for you as well. After the Army I opened a business that provides drones. Long story short, got a call from NASA in Houston to fly a demo for them. And if I agreed to come to Houston for the demo, they would let us inside the old NASA Mission control room they used for the moon missions and let me fly the Space Shuttle sim.

    Once in the sim they said the shuttle will be on auto pilot through re-entry but once we are in atmosphere, I had to fly it to the runway. And if I could get anywhere near the state, the county, or runway they would buy my team lunch. So I asked, what do we get if I land it on its designated runway? (which came with multiple laughs from the control room) To which I heard in the back ground, yeah, you keep dreaming.

    This wasn't a moving flight sim, no degree of movement, just a mock up cockpit with instruments and visuals.

    What they didn't know was I was a pilot and I had flown the shuttle in X-Plane sim hundreds of times learning how to manage the ships airspeed and rate of decent along with flying the ILS (Instrument Landing System) all the way to the runway hundreds of times. Now flying the sim compared to flying it on my computer is obviously a huge difference but the numbers don't lie. All I had to do was follow the instruments and it would line me up on the runway. They had no idea.

    The quit laughing when I made the first turn and locked in on the ILS. They were like (WTF) when I got on the proper glide slope for proper energy management. Now they knew I had some kind of experience and that I was going to make it to the runway. I heard over the intercom, Lookie hear boys, we got us a Buck Rogers.

    I was too fast on my final approach and way way way down the runway before touchdown BUT, I greased her in like I had done it a few hundred times. (Which I had)
    While enjoying our free lunch on NASA the flight controller said, I knew something was up when you pointed the shuttle in the right direction and was on glide slope. So I figured since you pulled a fast one on us, I was going to give you hydraulic failures and a hurricane at the landing zone.

    So I asked him, why didn't you? He said you had 8 guys bigger than me in the control room so I figured buying lunch was the better alternative.

    It was a great day to remember.

    Pretty sure I was not trying to. I was merely addressing this, in a way, pointing out a NON issue unless you make it one (kneeling vs. standing) as it's a matter of personal choice born through the freedom to choose:

    I don't consider you or your ilk part of my country anymore. You support a traitor.

    Your hypocrisy speaks for itself.
    And nobody cares who you think is part of your country. lol
    Not sure what country that is.
    I served mine. But I can guarantee you never wore a uniform in the service of others.
